Trump Refuses to Rule Out Legal Status for ILLEGALS

Donald Trump on Monday refused to rule out granting legal status to undocumented immigrants who remain in the United States, breaking with an immigration proposal he laid out just last week.

The Republican nominee vowed last week during a major speech in Phoenix that undocumented immigrants seeking legal status would "have one route and one route only: to return home and apply for reentry like everybody else."

Don't like what I said today? Wait till tomorrow, I'll say the opposite

But asked Monday aboard his plane whether he could rule out a pathway to legal status for undocumented immigrants, Trump declined.

"I'm not ruling out anything," Trump said. "We're going to make that decision into the future. OK?"

Trump's answers came as reporters repeatedly pressed the Republican nominee over his position on providing a pathway to legal status to some undocumented immigrants living in the US.

But the apparent shift only further muddled Trump's position on immigration, less than a week after Trump's speech in Phoenix, which aimed to clarify Trump's stance on a core issue in his presidential campaign.
